I appear to have developed an allergy to any uncooked/unprocessed vegetable matter. If I eat fruits, raw vegetables, or unfermented tea, my lips, mouth, and throat get itchy.
Has anyone else experienced this, or do you have any thoughts or advice? It's very inconvenient. 🙁

Do you buy organic produce? I had a friend who had similar symptoms especially when eating apples - washing them didnt work, she had to peel them. Seems she was allergic to whatever pesticides or wax was used on them and when she bought organic apples (no pesticides etc)she doesnt experience any probelm and can even eat the peel. Whenever I eat regular broccoli, either uncooked or cooked from whole form, I get a flu-like nausea but when I eat organic grown broccoli I experience no such symptoms, so I am assuming its something thats sprayed on that particular vegetable. Just a thought that pesticide residue might be the culprit.

Hmm! I will do some tests and see if the organic stuff bothers me less. Thanks for the suggestion.
